I would like to run my stereo receiver through my Mackie 808S powered mixer. I want to be able to have stereo through my mains for my turntable and CD player as well as fm radio. I plugged unbalanced RCA jacks into the tape out on the receiver to the XLR to the stereo mic/line in channel 7 on the Mackie. This works except I don’t seem to have a stereo signal. Do I need balanced cables to get stereo? Or should I run from the receiver to the Mains power amp in?
